"Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us”

"Give us this day our daily bread"
Aramaic: "Havlan lachma d'sunganan yaomana"
Meaning: Not just physical food, but spiritual nourishment. "Lachma" means bread, understanding, wisdom, or vitality. It's a call to receive daily divine energy and life force - the "inner manna" that feeds the spirit.

The right-wing U.S. administration continues to accommodate its ties to Moscow instead of providing Ukraine with everything needed to end the war.

Spanky's speech
I turned him on for 4 minutes and all I saw & heard & felt was a pissed off old man screaming into a microphone demanding I eat a plate of food that's gone bad while he keeps hitting me over the head with a 2 by 4 and telling me this is the best l've ever had it in life.

Trump’s mind-set — the logic underpinning his priorities, his morality, his decision making — is like opening up a garbage pail left out for days during a summer heat wave.
